据德媒报道,宝马已经批准开发M2更高性能版。这款更注重赛道行驶性能的车型被命名为M2 CSL,该车将搭载一台取自M2的3.0升直列六缸涡轮引擎,但性能获得升级,功率提升至约420马力,比标准版增加50马力。该车仅提供后轮驱动,但目前还不清楚是采用手动变速器还是双离合器变速器。除了功率更强劲,新车也将进一步瘦身。宝马将拿掉标准版的隔音材料和后排座椅,同时采用碳纤维车身面板。如果进展顺利,M2 CSL将在明年某个车展亮相,随后将很快上市。
BMW planning more hardcore M2
BMW has approved the development of a more hardcore M2, according to German media outlets.
Called M2 CSL, the track-focused coupe will be powered by an evolution of the standard M2's turbocharged 3.0-liter straight-six engine. Its output could conceivably be bumped up to about 420 horsepower, an increase of roughly 50 horses over the standard model. Rear-wheel drive will be the only configuration available, though whether it will use a manual or a dual-clutch transmission is up in the air at this point.
Auto Bild reports that the extra power will be complemented by a diet. BMW will remove a good chunk of the M2's sound-deadening material and toss out the rear bench, and it will manufacture several of the coupe's body panels out of carbon fiber. Of course, the modifications will be complemented by a series of visual updates such as a body kit and a large wing out back.
